- MMelissaPhoenix / Arizona •3 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoIf you want authentic Italian food in downtown Fredericksburg this is the place to go. Every month there is a different region that is highlighted for the specials and there are other specials every night as well. I have never had a bad meal at this restaurant...the food, the cocktails, appetizers, ambience...service you name it, it's fantastic. I do recommend getting a reservation if you can because they tend to get busy on the weekends. That's what happens when you're popular :-)More infoOrofino RestaurantPrice: Moderate• Italian• Fredericksburg•4.8
- PPaulWashington, D.C. Area •2 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWe continue to be pleased with the exceptional service and amazing food on our visits to Fahrenheit 132 and last night was just as exceptional as we had anticipated it to be. There’s a reason this is one of the best restaurants in the northern Virginia area. We come back for special occasions as well as our empty nester date nights knowing the exception service and amazing food will leave us more than satisfied and eager to make plans for a future evening event in downtown Fredericksburg and this restaurant.More infoFahrenheit 132Price: Expensive• Steakhouse• Fredericksburg•4.9

- DDavidWashington, D.C. Area •24 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoMy wife, grown daughter, and I, ate at Robiolina for my birthday. We enjoy dining at Robiolina and they didn't disappoint. The service was excellent. We shared the braised lentils with lamb sausage appetizer, which was savory and delicious. Our salads were fresh, high quality ingredients with tasteful seasoning. My daughter and I had the gnocchi with Italian sausage and cream sauce (w/sundried tomatoes). The gnocchi is like mini velvet pillows of potato pasta. The sausage is a delicate crumble in the light cream sauce - wonderful. My wife had the risotto with mango and Parmesan topped with bone-in prime rib (braised). I tasted it and wondered if I should have ordered it instead! We all shared desserts of tiramesu, creme Brule, and chocolate cake. The whole meal was fantastic! We'll be back!!More infoRobiolinaPrice: Moderate• Italian• Stafford•4.7
